his back porch, and on stepping out to learn
the cause of the racket he found u colored
woman lying on the floor seemingly in a
state of Inconsistencies. DR.. b. first i'm
preston was that she had been drinking,
but when he got a gliElse of her features she
had such wild look about her eyes that he
concluded she was crazy and sent for police.
The police soon arrived and escorted her to
apartments over the Mayors office. She
was thinly clad. and Mrs. Blum offered her a
shawl to throw over her, which she took in
her hand and marched off with ii slung over
her arm. 1t seems that she was taking

and stumbling over DR.. Blum's porch fell
sprawling on the floor.

The Salem Orchestra Comets.

The two concerts rendered by the Salem
orchestra under the leadership of Prof.
Bobby Carmichael Monday and Tuesday
nights fully met the high anticipations to
which the public expectation had been
raised. The programme rendered showed
taste and discrimination in the choice of Sc
lections and the rarest talent in interpre
tation and rendition. Some of the selections
with full orchestra parts were grand. The
flute solo by Mr. D. 5. Butner held the audi
ence spell-bound and was truly an artistic
and skillful rendition. The descriptive
Overture seemed" to be most enjoyed by the
audience. Prof. CarmichaePs overtures
were pronounced the success of the evening,
both for briiliancy and for skill in execution,
while many were loudest in their praises
of the vocal solos by Mrs. H. E. Fries.

Chronic

Catarrh destroys the sense of smell and
taste, consumes the cartilages of the nose,
and, unless properly treated, hastens its
victim into Consumption. 1t usually in
dicates scrofulous condition of the sys-
tenn, and should be treated, like chronic
ulcers and eruptions, through the blood.
The most obstinate and dangerous forms
of this disagreeable disease
Can be
cured by taking Ayers Sarsaparilla. **I
have ALWAYS been more or less troubled
with Scrofula, but never seriously until
the spring of 1882. At that time i took Il
severe cold in my head, which, notwith-
standing all efforts to cure grew worse,
and finally became u chronic Catarrh.
It was accompanied with terrible head
aches, deafness, continual coughing, and
with great soreness of the lungs. My
throat and stomach were so polluted with
the mass of corruption from my head
that Loss of Appetite, Dyspepsia, and
Emaciation totally untitled me for bust
ness. I tried many of the so-called spe-
cities for this disease, but obtained no
relief until / commenced taking Ayers
Sarsaparilla. After using two bottles OF
this medicine, l noticed an improvement
in my condition. When had taken six
bottles all traces of Catarrh disappeared
and my health was completely restored. -
A. D. Cornell, Fairfield, Iowa.
For thoroughly eradicating the poisons
Of Catarrh from the blood, take
Ayers Sar
saparilla. It will restore health and vigol
to decaying and diseased tissues, whel
everything else fails.

Catarrh

Is usually the result of neglected "cold
in the head" which causes an infiam-
nation of the mucous membrane of the
nose. Unless arrested, this inflammation
produces Catarrh which, when chronic,
becomes very offensive. 1t is impossible
to be otherwise healthy, and. at the
same time, afflicted with Catarrh. When
promptly treated, this disease may be
Cured
by the use of Ayers Sarsaparila. **I
suffered, for years, from chronic Catarrh.
My appetite was very poor, and l felt
miserably. None of the remedies l took
afforded me any relief, until commenced
using Ayers Sarsaparilla, of which L
have now taken five bottles. The Catarrh
strong and stout again; my appetite has
returned, and my health is fully restored.

was troubled with Catarrh, and all its
attendant evils, for several years. l tried
various remedies, and was treated by
Il number of physicians, but received
no benefit until l commenced taking
Ayers Sarsaparilla. A few bottles of
this medicine cured me of this trouble
some complaint, and completely restored
my health and strength. Jesse Boggs,

an old man who was in the habit Of travel

What do YOU think these sacks were for.
Well will tell you.
In the one behind him he tossed all the
kind deeds Of his friends, where they were
quite hid from view; and he soon forgo,

ABOUT NATURAL GAS.



Early History - IT. Zee for Heating end
Illuniaating Purposes.
The first use of rock gas was made in
the year 1891. when some enterprising
citizens of Fredonia. in Chautauqua
County, N. Y, devised method Of
utilizing in . small way the gas which
had long been observed issuing from
the ground in the neighborhood of the
town. A small well was bored in the
village to the depth Of twenty-seven
feet, and the gas was conducted
through pipes to the houses. where it
was used for Illuminating purposes
alone. "In 1924, ON the occasion Of
Lafayette visit, the village was illumi-
mated with natural gas" (See "Min-
eral Resources of the United States"
in the Report of the U. S. Geological
SURVEY, j. w. Powell, Director" 1885;
page 1897
This well. which was drilled in 1850
to the depth Of only seventy-five feet.
continued to supply the village with
Illuminating gas until the year 1858. 1t
is noteworthy fact that although this
interesting discovery was widely known
it did not lead to any further expert
ments, either in the neighbOrhood or
in other places, till fully twenty years
after 1921. In the early part of the
present century it was found that the
wells which were bored for salt in the
Kanawha valley yielded large quanti-
ties of gas In 1871 this gas was first
used as fuel for boiling the brines OBJ
tanned from the wells.
Nearly all the wells drilled for the
purpose of obtaining petroleum afforded
natural gas in abundance; it was. in
fact, a considerable inconvenience to
those engaged in sinking the wells, and
often a source of considerable danger.
Still. Notwithstanding the obvious value
of this gaseous fuel. no systematic eff
fort was made to utilize the product
until during the last decade. In 1873 a
well in Armstrong County. Pa. was go
arranged that the gas could be sep
arated from the water with which it
was discharged. and conveyed through
the pipes to several mills in that vicin-
ity, where it was used in the manufac-
ture of bar-iron. From that time to
the present day the use of natural gas
has increased very rapidly. 1t is estim-
ated, in the above report of the United
States Geological Survey. that the gas
used in 1885 for heating and illumin-
ating purposes was equivalent to 3, 49,
600 tons of coal. having value of g.
$4,000. The consumption of gas dur
ing the last calendar year very much
exceeded this quantity; the total value,
estimated on the basis of the coal which
it has displaced. probably amounted to
more than 81, 900, OOO.-Forum.
